Session Overview:
With the constant pressure to reduce the costs and risks associated with deploying new technology, organizations are finding it more challenging to deploy and implement solutions that truly meet their business needs. These challenges require today’s IT departments to architect virtualization solutions in aggressive timeframes with little or no room for error. However, this can be a massive undertaking and careful planning is essential.

In this session, attendees will learn how to:

  • Obtain buy-in from executives and key stakeholders
  • Identify key business objectives critical to project and business success
  • Review risks and constraints while evaluating different alternatives and approaches
  • Assess what needs to be considered before starting out on – and during – the virtualization implementation journey
  • Define project costs and benefits

The conference is Thursday, December 11th, at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Illinois.

When:
Mr. O’Donnell will present on December 11th at 10:30 a.m.
